– St. Johns County and the company contracted to work on beach restoration projects following Hurricanes Irma and Matthew agreed to a settlement on Tuesday after there was a dispute over costs.

CHC said it was due about $7 million in cost overruns — $4.6 million for extra work items and $2.3 million for trucking shortage impacts — but the two sides decided to settle, and the county agreed to pay the company about $3.7 million. The debate isn’t over whether CHC incurred the extra cost, the county said, the question is over whether or not the costs were recoverable under the contract, which the county disputes.
